Dear SSETSI Karanata is the only region in India that has received excess rain this monsoon(+23%). Refer to this link. TN is also surplus(+2%). Rayalseema is also in the normal range(-15%).Refer to this linkhttp://www.imd.gov.in/section/nhac/dynamic/Monsoon_frame.htm

Do not agree with Saurabh. Southern regions mentioned above only depend on NEM. We have seen probability of failures earlier. Problem only certain areas got rain rest with total drought - for instance kolar,Mandya,BANG,Chintamani,anantapur < 200mm of rain since june. Sept rains have failed.

Saurabh region is South "EAST" India. Please note "EAST" facing side receives hardly any rain during SWM and depends only on failure prone NEM - which in past few years is overshadowed by SWM (low pressure over GUJ/RAJ/MAHA defers SWM monsoon withdrawl till october and then low forms over Orissa/Bengal) resulting in serious drought for TN/Rayalseema/SE interior KAR. Same happens for Sri Lanka.

Southern regions mentioned above only depend on NEM - Wrong: Are you referring to southern region of india or some other country?South Interior karnataka recives rain from SW predominantly and a reasonable sum from NE monsoon.

Fyi: SI Karanata is the only region in India that has received excess rain this monsoon(+23%). SI karnataka includes bangalore as well. Its in surplus.
